I stopped at my favorite thrift store in Pittsburgh yesterday. I spent $35 on everything in the picture.
This is the best NES I have ever picked up, it's in excellent shape and works flawlessly.

Nice price. I don't remember what I paid for mine, but it was more than that. I passed up a second CIB one a couple summers ago for like $50. Probably should have picked it up, but money was tight at that point.

nice. When I got mine it was just the unit and the controller. I don't think the store has any idea what it was so it was real cheap. I got it for $5 bucks. At the time Nintendos web site stil sold parts for the Virtual Boy. I bought the visor shield, stand and power supply. All told mine cost me about $30 bucks too.

Bonus on getting a box too.

not much for me today. I found Mary-Kate and Ashley: Winners Circle for PS1 - $2 and Princess I shrunk the MArios on VHS for 99 cents.

I got my virtual boy for $0.25.  Only it was missing a few pieces.  Such as everything but the controller

That's exactly what I thought. 
And I know if I didn't buy it, I'd find a VB with no controller a week later.

I had a nice Craigslist find today.  I picked up the following 2600 lot for $25:

Atari 2600 4-switch w/ p/s, a/v cable, switch box, manual & warranty card
2 x Atari Joysticks
2 x Gemni Joysticks
1 x Pointmaster Joystick
1 x Spectravideo QuickShot Joystick with manual
1 x Tandy joystick
2 x Sets of Atari Paddle controllers
1 x Set of Atari Driving controllers in box

12 x Complete in box games (nothing real special but a couple of boxes I needed)
22 x Games with manuals (highlights are Space Shuttle, Poker Plus, Fantastic Voyage, & Bugs)
2 x Loose games (Zaxxon and one other that escapes me right now)

I really didn't need another 2600 but I couldn't pass up the deal to get the boxes and manuals.

Picked up a few things this week.

Rollergames NES .99
Gyruss NES 4.00
Blue Stinger CIB DC 5.00

I picked up a complete in the box Genesis for $5 from Goodwill yesterday.  Box is in nice condition and everything seems to be the, it even included the pack-in game (Columns).  As I think about it the only thing I didn't see was the manual for Columns, so I guess it's not really complete. 

I also found an Etch-A-Sketch Animator 2000 for $1, no games or box but it was only a buck!!
